Overview

  • Experience Oslo’s winter beauty on a private guided hike to the snowy summit of Vettakollen. Start in the city centre and ride the metro into quiet, frost‑covered hills before following a gentle forest trail through silent trees and frozen lakes. Because this is a private tour, the pace is entirely yours — slow and scenic, active and adventurous, or anything in between.
    At the top, enjoy one of Oslo’s most impressive winter panoramas, with sweeping views over the city and the Oslofjord. Take your time for photos, peaceful moments, and a special treat: a hot chocolate at the summit.
    With flexible pacing, a dedicated guide, and calm winter landscapes, this private hike offers a deeply personal and unforgettable seasonal experience.

Activity itinerary

Frognerseteren (Pass by)

Our trip starts at our tour centre in central Oslo. From there, we’ll board the metro, and enjoy a scenic train ride through the stunning winter landscape. As we leave the city behind, the views over the fjord will unfold before you, setting the stage for a day of exploration. As you reach the Frognerseteren station, you will be greeted by crisp fresh air and breathtaking panoramic views. From here, our hike will wind through the winter forest, and past small frozen ponds said to be inhabited by the mystical creature named Huldra.

DNT Fuglemyrhytta

  • 15m
Our first stop is a charming Norwegian cabin called DNT Fuglemyrhytta - a small cabin that offers a cosy spot to relax, maybe have a snack, and take in the views.

Vettakollen Viewpoint

  • 15m
Our adventure continues through the snow laden forest to the most spectacular spot of our journey – the summit of Vettakollen mountain. From here, you can feast your eyes on large parts of Oslo, the Oslo fjord, and its serene coastline, dotted with numerous small islands. Here we will enjoy a break in the heart of nature, and a moment of nordic "hygge," meaning a peaceful moment shared with good company. Don’t worry, we have plenty of time for photographs!

Nordmarka (Pass by)

After enjoying the view, we will stroll down to the metro station and finish our trip back in city centre Oslo. Whether you're a seasoned hiker or a nature enthusiast looking to experience Oslo's beauty, the Vettakollen hike to the top of Oslo is a must-do experience.
